Keeps the birds to under 20 or so & there's no smell worth worrying about. We had a 15'x10' L-shaped for ours, in Phoenix, less than 30' from the back door.
What did you keep? I like brown layers best. I have a neighbor that loves white layers and doesn't like brown eggs (not sure why, they taste the same to me). We have Aracaunas (lay light blue or light green eggs), Sex Links, New Hampshire Reds, and Barred Rocks. We also have a Bantam rooster that keeps up with these much bigger girls. Its hilarious to watch. He thinks he's 3 feet tall and courts the ladies with all he's got.Keeps the birds to under 20 or so & there's no smell worth worrying about.

Never spend money on new wood for a chicken house. Always use whatever materials you've got. I knew someone that turned a portable dog kennel into a hen house for a couple of hens in the city. I also know someone who used limbs to build the structure of the chicken house and covered it with feed bags to see how cheap he could keep his chickens. It worked out fine except when a big thunderstorm hit. The bags got too soaked and leaked, then it got mildewy inside, but it was fine after he replaced the bags again.same with the cattle.
There's plenty of commercial growers around, that also happen to be
friends/family, and or reasonable business people.
like I said, it's hard to keep um alive around the lake here.
All manner if critter, and reptiles drawling around at night.
I've got too much maintenance to do to be building a pin.
I'd also have to have it in my door to keep an eye on um.
If I ever have a need, I'll look into it, but more likely throw in with somebody
already established.
I think we're in agreement on that.them dumbassed white birds...forget their lineage. Had some others too. shell color is irrelevent, the taste is the same.
Oh, hell yeah.I knew you really, really love the cock.
